Hello, may I ask when the publication date and issue number of the article mentioned in your offer letter are?

Brother, when will your reply be published?

(0) 讚！ | 盆鱼艳

I want to ask the editor and everyone, if the publication number of the article accepted shows it will be in November next year, will the retrieval be very late? I will graduate in a year, and I can't wait.

Although the published date above has been modified, in reality, the final round of review and feedback returned in a shorter time than the one I mentioned earlier, in less than three days.

The editing teacher's remarks were very good. In order to publish a paper in this journal, you must first put in a lot of effort, which is well said. How is this effort measured? Without putting in effort, can the paper be reviewed three times? If you don't put in effort, will the paper be rejected in the first round of editing? In addition, after carefully reading the opinions of the three experts who reviewed the paper the first two times, there was no disagreement among them. Perhaps you think this is just my side of the story. I will forward the specific opinions to you today. The first expert even used the word "interesting," and the second expert gave several suggestions, even suggesting to cite an article. Based on the recommended article's author, the reviewing expert should be a foreigner. Despite this situation, in the second round of review, the third expert also objectively pointed out the problems in the paper and suggested major revisions. Then in the third round of review, the fourth reviewer directly stated that the research content lacked originality. The comments given should not have been focused on the lack of originality. How could they have beaten around the bush like that?

I would like to reiterate that I am very grateful for the reasonable academic exchanges and questioning. Just as my first article submitted to your journal in July was rejected in the first round, I am convinced. The two expert reviewers were very professional and hit the nail on the head in pointing out the issues. All I have is gratitude.

Once again, I express my thanks to the responding editing teacher, and I will contact you once I have edited the content. The reason for not contacting you promptly is that I do not want to hastily and hastily express my thoughts, leading to further misunderstandings and inconvenience to my supervisor, as well as wasting your time.

Thank you for the editor's patient reply. When I first wrote it, I deliberately blurred the timeline because, for me, I am just an unknown doctoral student. However, my supervisor is also a kind person. I initially posted these comments to avoid my supervisor being found, as these are all my own comments and have nothing to do with my supervisor. Also, please wait a moment, editor, I am already editing the information. Once I have finished editing all the information, I will contact you via the email you provided.

Hello, this teacher. I would like to give you some feedback now:

1. It has been nearly 24 hours since yesterday morning, and you have not contacted our editorial department. The email addresses are sqlin@whrsm.ac.cn or JRMGE@whrsm.ac.cn.
2. According to the information you provided: the submission date was September 8th, I checked the submissions from September 7th to 9th and did not find a manuscript that closely matched the information you provided.
3. If you want to resolve the issue, please be more specific and contact the editorial department directly; if you want to publish a paper in the JRMGE journal, please put in more effort yourself.
4. Do not equate the JRMGE journal with other journals in the field or make too many comparisons. Each journal has its own operating rules and development strategies.

If there are areas where the JRMGE journal falls short, please criticize and correct us. If you have any issues or encounter unfair treatment, please contact the editorial department directly. We have always been impartial in our selection process, sticking to the principle of "quality first". Therefore, our decisions are not heavily influenced by any supposed relationships or connections. However, it should be noted that many papers from well-known professors/experts are indeed of very high quality.

Yes, the submission was rejected on the fourth day, as it did not meet the standards of the prestigious journal and was difficult to further review.

Adding a few more sentences, as a doctoral student, the research group I am in is just like millions of others, an ordinary and average research group. We do not have advanced equipment or a lot of funding, so we can only do research that we believe is somewhat useful. In the face of this situation, I can only choose to be an anonymous critic and cynic online. At the beginning of the year, the Chinese Academy of Sciences Information Center issued warnings about some journals, including some very good ones, citing the reason that there were too many Chinese publications. At that time, I was outraged by this reason, thinking that Chinese people were being discriminated against. Now, looking back, I realize it was naive. Only those within the circle understand the circle. No matter how high the Impact Factor of JRMGE is in the future, even if it is consistently ranked as the top in engineering geology, facing journals with higher Impact Factors like EG, Acta Geotechnical (even if its reputation is currently not good), Geotechnical, JGGE-ASCE, CGJ (even if it falls to the second quartile), the prestigious JRMGE will still be far from matching their prestige.

Do you have a grudge against the editor and your teacher?

What's going on with you? Let me take a look first.

Please send me the specific information [reference number and phone number] to my email sqlin@whrsm.ac.cn, thank you. It will be easier to contact you.

Last night, as expected, I received a rejection, with four reviewers, three major revisions, and one rejection. It's quite ironic. Previously, after waiting for several tens of days for a review, this time I got a response in three days (clearly the editor assigned reviewers, and this time no uncontrollable factors could be allowed). Yesterday afternoon, after submitting the revised manuscript, an email came back shortly. I can't help but admire the speed at which the journal's editor handled it. In June and July of this year, the new engineering geology journal's WOS ranking came out, and I saw that JRMGE was ranked first. At that time, I was proud to see a domestic journal, especially in the field of research I am in, achieve such a high ranking. However, the result this time was disappointing. It's not that I can't accept rejection, whether it's the initial review by the editor, the first round of reviews, or even the second round of reviews, if there are reasonable suggestions for rejection, or even if rejected, if the reviewers are experts, it's worth revising. It's just that manipulating in such a malicious way is truly despicable.

It should just be a simple review process, and if you want to reject the first round, you can reject it.

A very bad submission experience, let me first talk about my submission process:
September 8, 2024 - Submission
October 2, 2024 - Reviewer's review comments (two reviewers)
October 10, 2024 - Under review (submitted for review again)
October 25, 2024 - Reviewer's review comments (one reviewer)
November 7, 2024 - Under review (submitted for review again)
I really don't know what the journal editor is doing. It was reviewed twice, and now it is clearly looking for a rejection letter, then rejecting it under the guise of rejection. A senior student in the same research group previously said that this journal caters to experts (which is understandable, as experts ensure quality), but since my paper has come back with review comments twice, it should not be rejected, otherwise the editor would have rejected it outright. If there are issues with the paper, I am open to reasonable questioning and suggestions for modification, but if it keeps getting reviewed repeatedly, I have to question the editor's intentions.
